The two worked together, and without realizing it, they had tidied up the cave.
Lu Yang took out a bed from his spatial warp and placed it directly in the cave. Then, he took out sheets and a quilt and began to make the bed.
Lu Wanqing found it amusing. "Third Brother, why did you bring these?"
"I have all the necessities in my spatial warp. If it weren't absolutely necessary, I wouldn't let you suffer any hardship," Lu Yang said.
Lu Wanqing looked at her third brother, feeling incredibly fortunate.
That night, they stayed up very late. It wasn't that they couldn't sleep, but rather that in the unfamiliar and dangerous territory of the Zerg, they felt uneasy. Despite being very tired, they couldn't sleep because their hearts were truly troubled.
Fortunately, as midnight approached, she couldn't resist her body's instincts and closed her eyes, falling asleep without realizing it.
When she woke up again, the sky was already bright outside. Lu Wanqing instinctively looked to her side, wanting to find her third brother. However, upon looking, she found the spot beside her empty. Where was her third brother?
Without her third brother, Lu Wanqing wasn't worried. She trusted his abilities; he wouldn't get into trouble easily.
Perhaps her third brother had just gone out to scout?
Or to survey the surrounding environment beforehand?
As Lu Wanqing pondered, she got up. She put on her clothes, folded the quilt, then put away the sheets, and finally stored the bed in her spatial warp.
After doing all this, Lu Wanqing quietly stepped out of the cave to observe the outside world.
Outside was a wilderness, a true wilderness of forests and grasslands, with no signs of human habitation.
As she walked outward, Lu Wanqing was very cautious. The interstellar era had many mutated plants that could attack humans.
At that moment, Lu Wanqing felt fortunate that she had secretly learned a lot about mutated plants while she was with the Yu family. Therefore, amidst this wilderness filled with plants, she could easily distinguish between those that were aggressive mutated plants, ordinary mutated plants, and poisonous mutated plants.
She selectively avoided the mutated plants that were aggressive towards humans or poisonous, and carefully moved outward.
However, after walking for a long time, she still couldn't find any trace of her third brother.
Lu Wanqing was somewhat puzzled. Where had her third brother gone?
Had her third brother left using artificial wormhole technology again?
That seemed possible. After all, they had come to find the Zerg Queen, and where the Zerg Queen was, it was likely to be dangerous. It made sense for her third brother to use an artificial wormhole to go directly there.
If her third brother hadn't gone to find the Zerg Queen, his disappearance without a trace was very strange. Although artificial wormhole technology was mature, the cost of opening a wormhole each time was very high. Even with the combined financial resources of the Federation and the Empire, they had to use it sparingly and couldn't just open artificial wormholes at will.
As Lu Wanqing thought, she returned to the cave. It was better for her to wait for her third brother in the cave, so he wouldn't worry if he came back and couldn't find her.
However, Lu Wanqing didn't expect that her wait would last for a long time.
An hour later, her third brother still hadn't returned. She began to feel uneasy and couldn't help but open her communication device to send him a message.
However, the device remained silent, with no response at all.
What was wrong with her third brother?
Why wasn't he replying?
Was her third brother currently doing something very important and didn't have time to reply?
As time passed, Lu Wanqing's anxiety grew. She went from sending a message to her third brother to directly calling him. However, no matter how much she tried, there was no response from the other end of the communication device.
Was her third brother lost in communication?
Had her third brother possibly run into trouble?
Lu Wanqing suddenly realized this problem and became inexplicably anxious. She tried hard to recall the previous night, but she couldn't remember anything. She remembered being very scared at first, but lying in her third brother's arms, she stayed up until midnight and finally fell asleep.
After falling asleep, she seemed to have slept very soundly, so she didn't even know when her third brother had left.
Lu Wanqing suddenly blamed herself. Why did she have no vigilance at all when she was with her third brother? If she had been a little more alert, she might have known when her third brother left and where he went.
Lu Wanqing was worried and started searching outside.
This was Zerg territory, so she dared not take out the mecha she had made. Fortunately, before coming, her third brother had prepared a Zerg mecha for her. As long as she hid inside the mecha, she wouldn't have to be so careful when going out, could move faster, and if she had enough energy, she could even fly.
The mecha Lu Wanqing had was designed to look almost like a bear.
After getting inside, Lu Wanqing piloted the mecha and searched the wilderness. However, she traveled a long distance and searched the entire area near the wilderness, but she couldn't find her third brother.
Time flew by. It was almost dark. Lu Wanqing wanted to return to the cave. She wanted to go back and see if her third brother had returned.
But she didn't expect that as soon as she turned around, she would encounter a mutated wolf.
The reason it was called a mutated wolf was that this wolf was as tall as a person. At first glance, it was terrifying!
Lu Wanqing, hiding inside the bear mecha, still felt a pang of fear as she watched the mutated wolf.
Perhaps it was due to extreme fear that the moment the mutated wolf lunged at her, she fired.
The weapon was powerful, and with just one shot, the mutated wolf on the opposite side fell.
Lu Wanqing blinked. She hadn't even reacted. The wolf... was dead?
But soon, Lu Wanqing panicked because, on the hillside behind the fallen white wolf, wolf heads began to appear.
Lu Wanqing suddenly remembered something: wolves were pack animals!
She had killed the pack leader, and the other wolves wouldn't let her go!
Lu Wanqing reacted and quickly fired shot after shot at the emerging wolf heads.
Her firepower was fierce, and in a short time, she had dealt with several wolves.
The mutated wolves had intended to attack her, but they never expected that in such a short time, so many of their companions would die.
Wolves had always been intelligent animals. At this moment, they also felt that the "bear" opposite them was very powerful. The remaining wolves began to feel fear and slowly retreated.
Lu Wanqing also noticed the wolf pack's retreat, which gave her courage. She fired another shot, eliminating one more wolf.
The next second, the wolf pack suddenly turned and ran away, and they ran very fast, as if fleeing from a flood or a fierce beast.
Lu Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief. Only after all the wolves had left did she take a deep breath.
This time, she had killed quite a few mutated wolves. She picked them all up and stored them in her spatial warp, thinking they might be useful later.
When she returned to the cave, it was completely dark outside.
Lu Wanqing wanted to take out her human communication device to send a message to Cui Cui. However, when she took it out, she discovered that human communication devices had no signal in Zerg territory and couldn't send messages.
